After watching the Lions/Bears game and the first half of the Vikings game last night. At least after week two Green Bay might be the only real threat to the Lions in the division. They'll be ok

I did a bit of digging. Technically Frum is correct, however Congress basically ceded a lot of the tariff laws to the executive branch. Going back to Smoot Hawley in the 1930s, and other tariff acts in the '60s and 70s, Congress has given the President the power to impose and negotiate tariffs. If you take the originalist's view Trump has overstepped his boundaries. The history of the courts says otherwise, they gave up that power a while ago. Or at least that's what ChatGPT tells me And since we have long agreed that this Congress has given up basically all designs at actual governing....and the Supreme Court has turned itself into a pretzel.....

Big macho guys playing soldier. Nothing but snowflakes

Pry got fired at VaTech. 6 plus million buyout. He can now sell cars full time

And he's not crazy about smart people.

Or start singing Wind Beneath My Wings

Sounds like something out of a Mel Brooks movie

If he had any decency he would have waited until after the funeral....

Virginia Tech was just annihilated by Old Dominion. That's what you get when your mascot is a turkey.

I've been seeing stories around here about localities falling all over themselves to lure these data centers. The same folks that keep finding excuses to deny solar farms and such. Interestingly enough the same folks pushing for these things are the ones screaming the loudest about a regional sports/entertainment facility being built in the area. They are also championing the building of another Buc-ees nearby

Selective Christianity

Let's not forget those who lost their lives at yet not her school shooting that basically got swept under the rug.

On the day the US was attacked Pat Benatar was scheduled to perform a concert at a vineyard in Napa, Ca. The promoter urged her to go thru with it. After opening with America the Beautiful, this was the second song in the set. This video is from a TV concert a few years later

That song really needs to be banned for numerous reasons. None of them political. It ranks up there with the Macarena

Another thing to keep in mind, especially for those saying this is not normal. Ever since folks like John Smith, the Pilgrims, and others landed on the shores of what is now America we've been a violent people. It's in our DNA

I tend to doubt that one semester of college was enough to radicalize this guy....

I'm in the Argue Better camp. I might not agree with all of Utah's Governor Spencer Cox, especially on his recent remarks on Kirk. But I do respect him for his efforts to tone down rhetoric with his efforts as head of the National Governor's Association to attempt to reach compromises across political and idealogical lines with his disagree better Gov Wes Moore from Maryland is another one promoting actions by our leaders. What little I've seen of Kirk's "Prove Me Wrong" rallies tend to do just the opposite. It puts the opposing side on a defensive footing. This country became great because of leaders willing to make compromises. History has proven that when two ideology's refuse to come to some sort of an agreement, then countries fail.

I could take this all the way back to the Kennedy assignations and a lot of school shootings. It seems to be a common thread

Kirk espoused everything that was the opposite of Christ's teachings. Prove me wrong
